Andy Murray pleased by Rome performance

Andy Murray admits that he had to be at the top of his game to beat Jeremy Chardy at the Italian Open.

Andy Murray has admitted that he "played a really good match" to beat Jeremy Chardy in the second round of the Italian Open.

The world number three extended his winning record on clay this season to 10-0 thanks to a 6-4 6-3 victory on Wednesday.

Murray confirmed yesterday that he would be participating at the tournament following a busy fortnight that saw him triumph at both the Munich Open and the Madrid Open.

"My legs were a bit tired at the beginning, but then I started to feel better after the first few games," the Brit is quoted as saying by the ATP's official website.

"For me, I felt like I played a really good match. It was tough for me, but I hung in; I felt like I moved pretty well and I served well throughout the match. I was happy with the way I adjusted to the conditions. I felt like I moved well and made it difficult for him to win free points."

Murray's best showing in Rome came four years ago when he reached the semi-finals.
